  1. We discuss the length {\red $$L_{c,n}$$} of the longest cycle in a sparse random graph {\red $$G_{n,p},$$ $p=c/n$,} $$c$$ constant. We show that for large $$c$$ there exists a function $f(c)$ such that $$L_{c,n}/n\to f(c)$$ a.s. The function $$f(c)=1-\sum_{k=1}^\infty p_k(c)e^{-kc}$$ where $$p_k{\red (c)}$$ is a polynomial in $$c$$. We are only able to explicitly give the values $$p_1,p_2$$, although we could in principle compute any $$p_k$$. We see immediately that the length of the longest path is also asymptotic to $f(c)n$ w.h.p.

  3. Let $$\Omega_q$$ denote the set of proper $[q]$-colorings of the random graph $$G_{n,m}, m=dn/2$$ and let $$H_q$$ be the graph with vertex set $$\Omega_q$$ and an edge $$\set{\s,\t}$$ where $$\s,\t$$ are mappings $$[n]\to[q]$$ iff $$h(\s,\t)=1$$. Here $$h(\s,\t)$$ is the Hamming distance $$|\set{v\in [n]:\s(v)\neq\t(v)}|$$. We show that w.h.p. $$H_q$$ contains a single giant component containing almost all colorings in $$\Omega_q$$ if $$d$$ is sufficiently large and $$q\geq \frac{cd}{\log d}$$ for a constant $c>3/2$.
